A Scout's Prayers



"Your family and religious leaders teach you about God and the ways you can serve. You do your duty to God by following the wisdom of those teachings every day and by respecting and defending the rights of others to practice their own beliefs."
- The Boy Scout Handbook




[+] Through the prayers of our holy fathers, O Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us. Amen.

Glory be to You, our God, glory be to You!

Prayer to the Holy Spirit

O Heavenly King, Comforter, Spirit of Truth, You are everywhere present and fill all things. Treasury of Blessings and Giver of Life, come and dwell within us, cleanse us of all stain, and save our souls, O gracious Lord.

The Thrice Holy Hymn - "Trisagion"

[Metania] Holy God, Holy and Mighty, Holy and Immortal, have mercy on us. (Three times)

[+] Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and forever. Amen.

Prayer to the Holy Trinity

O Most Holy Trinity, have mercy on us; O Lord, cleanse us of our sins; O Master, forgive our transgressions; O Holy One, come to us and heal our infirmities for your name's sake.

Lord, have mercy. (Three times)

[+] Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and forever. Amen.

Our Father

* Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. * Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. * Give us this day our daily bread, * and forgive us our trespasses * as we forgive those who trespass against us, * and lead us not into temptation, * but deliver us from evil.

[+] For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and forever. Amen.
